Your Testimonies, which You have commanded, are righteous and very faithful.

Concerning Your Testimonies, I have known of old that You have founded them forever.

For truly I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the Law till all is fulfilled.

having been born again, not of corruptible seed but incorruptible, through the Word of God which lives and abides forever,

but the Word of the Lord endures forever. Now this is the Word which by the gospel was preached to you.

Give me understanding, and I shall keep Your Law; yea, I shall keep it with my whole heart.

Teach me good discretion and knowledge, for I have believed Your Commandments.

JOD: Your hands have made me and formed me; give me understanding, that I may learn Your Commandments.

TAU: Let my cry draw near to Your face, O Jehovah; give me understanding according to Your Word.

For it is God who commanded light to shine out of darkness, who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us an understanding, that we may know Him who is true; and we are in Him who is true, in His Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God and eternal life.

Little children, keep yourselves away from idols. Amen.

The lips of the righteous feed many, but fools die for lack of heart.

And He said, Go, and tell this people, You listen to hear, but do not understand; you look to see, but do not perceive.

Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their hearts, and turn back, and be healed.

When its branches are dried up, they shall be broken off; the women come and set them on fire; for it is a people of no understanding. Therefore He who made them will not have mercy on them, and He who formed them will show them no favor.

For My people are foolish; they have not known Me; they are foolish children, and they have no understanding. They are wise to do evil, but to do good they have no knowledge.

Many shall be purified and made white and tested, but the wicked shall do wickedly. And none of the wicked shall understand, but the wise shall understand.

My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you rejected knowledge, I also will reject you from being priest to Me. Since you have forgotten the Law of your God, I also will forget your sons.

When anyone hears the Word of the kingdom, and does not understand it, then the wicked one comes and snatches away what was sown in his heart. This is that which was sown by the wayside.

And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You sent.
